  1. the truck was working one day and then tried to start it and it turned over but would not start up so we belived the timing was off changed the silinoid stater was checked autozone said it passed coil was changed distributor cap was changed when i move the cranck shaft its kinda hard to turn then its kind of easier to turn then goes back to kinda hard to turn getting spark and getting gas but battery still drains kinda quick even when on a charger timing chain not broke checked that im tryin to go for the easy stuff first before plunging into replacing the timing chain i have got the bottom tdc but not the top so as it was getting cranked i moved the distributor to see if i could get it to fire that way or even any closer and still nothing had the distributor tested as well ignition mod was changed all spark plug wires are on fire order i double checked that twice
  2. what else could it be besides timing chain and would trying to turn it over would it drain the battery really quick
  3. cant drive it could it be under compression or a bent valve when it turns over and dont fire it start to turn good then boggs down like really hard then turns good then boggs down again
  4. "devil" started this topic at the Ford E4OD transmission thread. I moved the question to its own topic for replies on the subject: "My 1988 Ford F150 302 V-8 engine cranks then bogs. Won't start. Battery goes dead quickly. Changed coil, ignition module, distributor cap, should be on top dead center. Had starter checked is good. Getting gas can smell it. What else could i check? What could be wrong?"—devil Go to http://forums.4wdmechanix.com/topic/572-1988-f150-302-v-8-bogs-while-cranking-over-and-wont-start/ for further discussion and replies on this topic...
